In his first NBA action since being taken No. 1 in the 2022 draft by the Magic, Paolo Banchero showed glimpses of a bright future through two Summer League games in Las Vegas.
But, according to Orlando coach Jamahl Mosley, Banchero’s time in Summer League has come to an end. Mosley said he made the decision because he feels Banchero used the opportunity for the experience he needed and the second-year head coach wants to evaluate other players on the summer league roster.
Banchero showed why he was worth the top selection in two contests, averaging 20 points, six assists and five rebounds per game.
